Brendan Rodgers admits leaving Celtic when he did was not ideal

Celtic are aiming to win ten Scottish Premiership titles in a row having won the last eight, and given their unrivalled domestic dominance, not many can bet against them. The Hoops secured their third consecutive treble last term, but were dealt a huge blow in February that almost threatened to derail their campaign. Brendan Rodgers left his position as manager to link up with English Premier League side Leicester City, and many Celtic still hold it against him. Neil Lennon was appointed as his successor on an interim basis, eventually getting the job permanently a few months later, helping the side to the Premiership and Scottish Cup.
